An awesome list of conferences. Inspired by the awesome lists thing.
This was seeded initially from @brittanystoroz's Twitter list. The O-Reilly folder is the dedicated front end where you can filter through all of the conferences listed by @joshsimmons on his excel sheet. Initial work on this list was done by @Stephn-R.
###What makes a conference awesome?
- A code of conduct that is explicitly mentioned and upheld. For more on why, see this.

- Diversity; both in the talks and in the community who attend.
- Grants for students and minorities.
- Accessibility for disabled persons: wheelchair access, interpreters or captioning, etc.
- Alcohol-free drink options.
- Quiet rooms and safe space.
